Cuban Stars Bv XEA. Service (—CINCINNATI, June 23. IY' I Adolfo Luque, Cincinnati’s Cuban hurler, seems to have regained his 1923 form this season. To date he has pitched some splendid games. Luque, one of the National League's greatest pitchers two years ago, fell away badly last year, winning but ten tilts and losing fifteen. His poor work possibly kept the Reds from being a real pennant contender. This season, however, he looks like the Luque of old and should come through to a successful campaign.

NAVY CREW LAUDED AS ONE OF GREATEST EVER Middies Outwit Washington by Sustained Spurt in Last Three-Quarters of a Mile. By Henry L. Farrell United Press Staff Corresoondent NEW YORK, June 23. —Victors over the champion Washington eight and five other first-class varsity crews in one of the greatest races ever rowed at Poughkeepsie, the valiant Navy crew from Annapolis was hailed today as the champion crew of the year and one of the greatest of all times.
“It’s better than the other or.e,” veteran coaches and critics said after the eight young giants in the Navy shell had beaten Washington by a half length by whooping up the amazing stroke of 44 in the last quarter mile of a four mile pull. “The other one” referred to was the great Navy eight of 1920 and 1921, which won two intercollegiate championships and one Olympic title in record time. Dick Glendon, the* young Navy coach, said that the victory of his eight did not mean that it was a better crew than Washington's. Sprint Too Late “There might have been another story,” he said, "if Washington had made that last sprint sooner.” It was the general opinion of those who know something about the fine points of the rowing game that the Navy stroke outwitted the Washington leader in making his jump about three quarters of a mile from the finish while the dying effort of the Washington eight was not started until the last quarter. It was then too late. When the Washington stroke Jumped to 38. the Navy went to 40. Washington went up to 40 and the Navy caused a gasp among the crowd at the finish line by boosting the stroke to 44 and holding it for the finish. It Is unlikely that the Washington Crew will be back next year, according to gossip around the boat house. It was said that the crew would not have been sent this year if it did not have the championship to defend. Wisconsin Surprise Wisconsin, which made a brilliant showing in finishing third, will be back next year, according to Coach Pop Vail and the Navy no doubt will want to defend Its championship. When the midshipmen got out of the shell, at the boathouse the Washington oarsmen threw their arms around the new champion* and greeted them like brothers. Following an old Navy custom after a victory, the oarsmen then picked up the little Navy coxswain and tossed him far out Into the river. The victorious Navy crew was hustled out of the boathouse to the trains. Four of the crew who graduated recently were sent to their ships and the other four were ordered to the Pacific coast for a practice cruise. Callow Not Gloomy “Rusty” Callow, the Washington coach, was not gloomy. The defeat was the first setback in the three years he has been teaching. “We’re sorry we lost the race,” he said, “but I have no alibi and the boys are not looking for excuses. We were second to one of the finest crews I have ever seen." “Pop” Vail, the Wisconsin coach, was perhaps as well pleased as any coach along boathouse row. "Gee, I didn’t know the boys had so much in them,” he said. “I knew they could row’ a bit, but I didn’t believe they had as much punch as last year's crew, which finished second." CHICAGO-N. Y. PREP~TILT Bu sassed Press CHICAGO. June 23.—Lane Tech, high school baseball champions of Chicago, were today en route to New York, where they will battle Flushing High, Gotham prep champions, for the Chicego-New York title.

He possesses a mighty wallop and whenever he connects properly it’s a case of "pay day on the Wabash.” Brief’s homers came with the bases unoccupied and therefore did not ruin the game for the Ir.dlajis. The other run scortd by the vlaHors was helped around by an error. Monday was "ladies’ day” and "kids’ day’ ’and the feminine fans and children were given plenty of thrill*: to shout about. Ray Schmai.dt played fine ball at first base. Ernie Maun was due to perform on the mound for the Indians in the second conflict of the series this afternoon. Clark Protest* Manager Harry Clark of the Brewers played the Monday contest under protest because the umpires allowed Burwell a home run In the fourth Inning. but Harry's protest is not likely to receive much attention. Burwell socked the ball over the low right field fence and It struck the wire atop of the fence and became lodged in a pocket between two screens. Outfielder Rlchbourg let It stay at first, but later returnedreached through a crack in the fence and plucked out the ball and threw It to the Infield. The umpires ruled the ball had been driven outside of the playing field and therefore awarded Burwell a home run. HOOSIER SOLD TO YANKS Brazil (nd. Youth, Danville ThreeI Pilcher, to Big Show.
